    In our house every one,relatives friends etc buy the presents and send them to santa to deliver (that way they always get a thank you ) but THE MAN HIMSELF brings the stockings and one present.(always wrapped in totally different paper)
  • I remember my cousin telling me when I was about 7 or 8. It never stopped the magic for m though. Me and my brother still get stockings, and still leave out a carrot & milk for santa & the reindeers.
    We used to get a hoof print from rudolph each year! That was impressive of my parents/grandparents!
    Its lovely seeing OH's Godson believing in Santa, and getting wxcited waiting for him to come! :A

    I read in the paper that a teacher had taken it upoon herself to tell a class of 9year old that there was no such thing, so the policies in school has been changed!
    :A :j
  • My little girl is 8 and she still believes in the magic, im hoping to get another year out of her! I get mad when friends whose parents tell them decide to share the info :mad:

    I thought with my son that seeing as he was going to be starting high school the following sept i beter tell him, lol
    I think he knew really, but just didnt dare not believe 100% just in case, bless. :snow_laug :snow_laug
  • My youngest son is 9 (will be 10 5 days after xmas) and he still believes in santa, but i think this will be the last year that he does as hes asked lots of questions this year about does he really exist and how can he do it all in 1 night, he said all the kids in his class dont think theres a santa :santa2: but i keep on telling him if you dont believe you dont get, so hes written his letter and hes asking when we make the reindeer dust, I cant wait to see his face and his older brothers on christmas day.
